      Hi Guam! Thank you for your question! I’m not actually an expert about alcohol addiction. However, in my opinion I think that this kind of workshops could improve awareness about health and social problems deriving from alcohol addiction in teenagers. I hope that this awareness could help teenagers make more right decisions about the use of alcohol in the future.

      All the best,
      Maria

    Hi Guam, i’m wondering if this might have been meant for me?

    My first hope in terms of I’m a Scientist is to show young people what psychologists do. What does an experiment look like and how do you do one? This is the main thing that I want to focus on, and of course my subject area just happens to be alcohol! The second aim I have is to make people think a bit more about alcohol use. Having more awareness of how alcohol can impair your motor functions and judgement. I’m also hoping to link up with a local alcohol use charity to provide some information nearer the end about the short and long term impacts of alcohol use and how/where to get help if it’s needed.

    Hope this answers your question! 🙂
